Questions about example sentences with, and the definition and usage of "Explanation"

A: a synonym for "to butcher" is to ruin

alternatives are "i' ve fucked up" or "i failed"

A: Hmmm... I disagree. 😬

It says:

There are tons of apples.
There is tons of food.

(‘Are’ is the plural verb, ‘is’ is the singular verb.)

So far so good. ✅

However it says the plurality of is/are ignores ton/tons.

But:

“There is a ton of apples.”

...seems perfectly good to me.

A: Explicação

A: It means, we need an answer to this question - Why do people who have been learning a language for some time know more about that language than they have been taught? The answer might be - As we learn the rules and vocabulary of a language we gain an understanding that allows us to construct sentances on our own, even if we have not been taught them.

A: sin explicación alguna

A: Mmmm, you probably mean the colloquial use where you have just found out that information you were given or something someone said is false. You say "so much for" followed by the false information that you were given.

Suppose last week a friend promised to help you move house this evening, but another friend just told you that she knows the first friend is going to a party tonight, you might say
"so much for moving house then!"

Or, someone told you she was giving up alcohol and you just heard she bought a bottle of vodka, you could say "so much for the sober like, then!"

You were going to go to the theatre in the city tonight but there is a bus strike and you cannot afford a taxi: "so much for my night out, then"

A: "can you concrete explanation" is not natural

A: Which - asking to choose from set of things
e.g which cake tastes the best?
which - referring to something previously mentioned
e.g. the event which we were talking about earlier

Whereby - by which
let's create a system whereby people can learn independently

A: is a contraction of "am not", "is not", "are not", "has not", or "have not" but this word is not considered to be correct English by some people.

1. They ain't got nothing to say
2. He ain’t coming in today

A: In means “to go into” so when you walk into a house, you are “in” the house. On means “to go onto” so when you walk onto the sidewalk you are “on” the sidewalk. At means “location” so if someone says “we are at the mall” it means their location is the mall. Of means “to obtain” so if someone said “i need two of these.” or “I will take care of him.” it means they are obtaining/doing. From is a past tense word it means “past location” so before when I said “at the mall” if we left the mall and went somewhere else it would be “we went from the mall to the restaurant”

A: I never heard someone say explication. It's in the dictionary, but not used very much.

A: They are two completely different words.

An explanation is making a statement, idea or situation clear to someone by describing it in more detail or revealing relevant facts and/or to give reasons to justify or excuse (an action or event).

An account is a report or description of an event or an experience or a record/statement of financial expenditure. The verb form of account is to consider or regard in a specified way.

A: They are basically the same however the second one directs the thanks to the person giving the explanation. The subtle difference does not change the message of the sentence.

A: they mean similar things however "What do you say?" Is more of asking for a response or an answer. "What do you think?" Is asking for an opinion

A: They are interchangeable. "Though" is a little more casual.

A: for ex, when your school result is higher than before u can say" my work has ameliorated"

A: Both are used, but they are slightly different.
"Rational explanation" means more that it is based on logic, facts, science, common sense, etc.; and not on feelings, religion, paranoia, etc.
"Reasonable explanation" means more that it seems appropriate, that there is no obvious disqualification for the explanation being true; it does not seem like a crazy explanation.

A: If you need any explanation...

The first one.

A: That is correct! It means: This explanation is easy to understand.

A: a funny but sad expression (줄임말은 없어요 ㅠ)

A: なぜなら今回explanationを日本語にするとただ「説明」じゃなくて、「説明すること」です
なので「すること」を数えようとして文法的に違うかなと思います

A: The sentence sounds like it's talking about an event that happened in the past, so just "got" is correct.

So, after finishing school (an event that happened in the past), Tim got a job in a factory (which also happened in the past.)

You could then add on "Even today, he still has got that factory job" if he was still working there. But in the original sentence, it has to be just "got."

And for the question below, yes, you can also use "have got" for stating a fact. But actually both of those sentences are correct! "Our house has a garden" AND "our house has got a garden" have the same meaning... confusing, I know ^^;

A: No, sorry if my answer was confusing.
"Giving a short explanation to Dr. Tokman" is correct. (no "the")
I also meant in the audio it was a little hard to hear the "e" sound at the beginning of the word "explanation". It is still easy to understand, but you will sound more natural if you make that "e" heard.

A: This medicine is so effective at improving your concentration that you can make a comparison with someone who doesn't have any type of allergies, because people who don't have allergies can concentrate more, theoretically speaking.

A: It sounds natural. しかし、表現は「expression」だが説明は「explanation」です。
